FAURE IMPRESSIONS

2024 marks the 100th anniversary of the death of Gabriel Fauré who passed on 04.11.1924. This French composer was the author of an immense body of works and in this episode we will focus on the ones he created for the cello. My studio guest is the Assistant Principal Cellist of the Hong Kong Sinfonietta, Laurent Perrin, who will share his impressions of the music Fauré created for his instrument including his Élégie, deemed "one of the last manifestations of French musical Romanticism”
